Rincon Research Corporation seeks a DSP/Communications Engineer to create cutting edge solutions to challenging national security and defense signal processing, geolocation, and communication problems. You will work in a multi-disciplinary R&D environment with similarly skilled and motivated electrical engineers, mathematicians, and computer scientists/engineers in a highly rewarding personal and professional environment.
What are the primary responsibilities for the DSP/Communications Engineer position?Core responsibilities include designing and implementing digital signal processing systems for communication signals, radar signals, and other applications. This includes developing, deploying, maintaining, and testing software-based solutions. System development can include algorithm design, data analysis, hardware control, computational optimization, RF system modeling, field testing, error budget analysis, operational performance analysis, writing efficient software, testing with real data, and providing applications to front-line customer facilities. A key responsibility is staying up-to-date with the signal processing technologies, tools, and methodologies and experimenting with new technologies to incorporate innovative solutions into RRC projects. RRC personnel can expect to work across all functional areas: systems engineering, development, integration and test, deployment and O&M, and experience the direct mission feedback from the customer and seeing your project provide real-world contributions that make a significant difference. You're encouraged and expected to propose things that you believe will improve the applications and frameworks you're working in. The ability to work unsupervised with minimal direction and the ability to self-start is a must
What required background will make you successful?- Active TS/SCI security clearance
- Degree (Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD) in Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or another equivalent field
- Strong background in DSP, including knowledge of DSP theory as well as practical system development experience
- Proficient in C++ and/or Python in LINUX environments
Preferred Skills:- At least 3 years' experience in a signal processing engineering-related discipline
- Cellular communications, satellite communications, modern modulation schemes, cyclostationary techniques
- Geolocation, radar signal processing, RF propagation and link budgets, RF system design
- DevOps and Cloud computing Experience (Gitlab, CI/CD, CVE mitigations, Docker, Kubernetes, PІР)
What benefits does RRC offer?- 100% employer-paid premiums for family medical and dental insurance, employee life insurance, short-term and long-term disability (STD & LTD)
- Flexible reimbursement spending accounts for medical expense and dependent care
- Immediate participation and vesting in the company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) and 401(k) Plan
- Employer contributions to RRC's ESOP
- Employer matching contributions to the company's 401(k) Plan
- Employer discretionary contributions to the company's 401(k) Plan
